Overview

• Lady Violet married Viscount Garnock at Belvoir Castle on June 20, attended by royalty and high society guests.
• The Rutland Tiara, with diamond carnations and fuschias symbolizing love and dedication, has been in the Manners family since the 18th century.
• The heirloom was rescued from destruction during the Blitz by Lady Ursula D’Abo and last appeared publicly in 1997 at Lady Theresa Manners’ wedding.
• The bride’s Phillipa Lepley gown featured a mermaid silhouette and star-studded décolletage, following the designer’s work for the groom’s sister, Lady Charlotte Lindesay-Bethune.
• Emma, Duchess of Rutland, had long anticipated a family occasion that would bring the heirloom back into the spotlight.
